Just a design thought for you. A "Drop-Zone Bar" (containing a bunch of ideally-sized drop zones for each purpose), part of tiddler titles area (just under the title and ViewToolbar buttons) so that the "Sticky titles" = YES keeps the drop-zone visible for long tiddlers.
Although, I don't have time to collaborate on this puppy, everything about it is now percolating in the back of me sponge. I may have no choice but to scratch that itch with a proof of concept when I can find some downtime. Damn it, why must *everything* be interesting to me ...
